Rudy Baylor is a newly qualified lawyer: he has one case, and one case alone, to save himself from his mounting debts. His case is against a giant insurance company which could have saved a young man's life, but instead refused to pay the claim until it was too late.
The settlement could be worth millions of dollars, but there is one problem: Rudy has never argued a case in court before, and he's up against the most expensive lawyers that money can buy.
The Rainmaker
Another taut and tense courtroom thriller from the master of legal fiction, John Grisham. The Rainmaker is the story of Rudy Baylor, a young, recently bankrupt lawyer who stumbles onto a case that could potentially make his career. It is a story of overcoming the odds, a true 'David and Goliath' tale that is sure to enthrall the reader as Grisham weaves his perfect web of intrigue, suspense and drama. Reviewed by 01jl.
